The best, juicy beef burger - just in time for Father's Day!
We have indulged in many burgers over the years, but this one stacks up to be the winner. The texture, flavour, aroma - everything about it makes it the ultimate beef burger, to the point that dad won't even know it's gluten free.
Filled with wholesome ingredients, these easy-to-make juicy burgers are perfect for a family lunch, dinner or BBQ. They can be made free, simply swap our brioche-style milk buns with our vegan buns and opt for a dairy free cheese.
INGREDIENTS
For the Burger Patties
- 500g beef mince
- 3/4 cup Nodo Everything Crumb Breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon onion flakes
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
For the Burgers
- 4 Nodo Milk Buns
- 1 head of cos lettuce, leaves chopped and washed
- 2 small tomatoes, sliced
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- Ketchup and mayonnaise
METHOD
- Slice each milk bun in half. Set aside.
- Combine the burger patty ingredients in a large bowl. Split the mixture into four portions.
- Using wet hands, roll each portion into a ball and then flatten the ball to create a burger patty.
- Preheat a grill or frypan on a high heat for 1-2 minutes. Spread a little oil over both sides of the patty and then place on the cooking surface. Repeat for the remaining patties.
- Cook until the patty is well caramelised, 3-4 minutes.
- Flip each patty over and add a slice of cheese on top. Continue to cook on a high heat for a further 2-3 minutes, until the patties are cooked through and the cheese has melted.
- While the burger patties are cooking, place the milk buns cut-side down in a dry pan to toast. Remove when golden brown and set aside.
- When the patties are ready, remove them from the heat and place on a piece of paper towel to remove any excess oil.
- To assemble the burgers, spread ketchup on the base of each milk bun base before layering the lettuce and tomato on top. Place a cooked patty onto each bun. Spread mayonnaise onto the milk bun lid and then place on top.
